Yaw ayyuhal muzzammil

O you Enwrapped one

قُمِ ٱلَّيْلَ إِلَّا قَلِيلًا

Qumil laila illaa qaleelaa

Stay up during the night, except a little

نِّصْفَهُۥٓ أَوِ ٱنقُصْ مِنْهُ قَلِيلًا

Nisfahooo awinqus minhu qaleelaa

For half of it, or reduce it a little

أَوْ زِدْ عَلَيْهِ وَرَتِّلِ ٱلْقُرْءَانَ تَرْتِيلًا

Aw zid 'alaihi wa rattilil Qur'aana tarteela

Or add to it; and chant the Quran rhythmically

إِنَّا سَنُلْقِى عَلَيْكَ قَوْلًا ثَقِيلًا

Innaa sanulqee 'alika qawalan saqeelaa

We are about to give you a heavy message

إِنَّ نَاشِئَةَ ٱلَّيْلِ هِىَ أَشَدُّ وَطْـًٔا وَأَقْوَمُ قِيلًا

Inn naashi'atal laili hiya ashadddu wat anw wa aqwamu qeelaa

The vigil of night is more effective, and better suited for recitation

إِنَّ لَكَ فِى ٱلنَّهَارِ سَبْحًا طَوِيلًا

Inna laka fin nahaari sabhan taweelaa

In the daytime, you have lengthy work to do

وَٱذْكُرِ ٱسْمَ رَبِّكَ وَتَبَتَّلْ إِلَيْهِ تَبْتِيلًا

Wazkuris ma rabbika wa tabattal ilaihi tabteelaa

So remember the Name of your Lord, and devote yourself to Him wholeheartedly

رَّبُّ ٱلْمَشْرِقِ وَٱلْمَغْرِبِ لَآ إِلَـٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ فَٱتَّخِذْهُ وَكِيلًا

Rabbul mashriqi wal maghriibi laaa ilaaha illaa Huwa fattakhizhu wakeelaa

Lord of the East and the West. There is no god but He, so take Him as a Trustee

وَٱصْبِرْ عَلَىٰ مَا يَقُولُونَ وَٱهْجُرْهُمْ هَجْرًا جَمِيلًا

Wasbir 'alaa maa yaqoo loona wahjurhum hajran jameelaa

And endure patiently what they say, and withdraw from them politely

وَذَرْنِى وَٱلْمُكَذِّبِينَ أُو۟لِى ٱلنَّعْمَةِ وَمَهِّلْهُمْ قَلِيلًا

Wa zarnee walmukaz zibeena ulin na'mati wa mahhilhum qaleelaa

And leave Me to those who deny the truth, those of luxury, and give them a brief respite

إِنَّ لَدَيْنَآ أَنكَالًا وَجَحِيمًا

Inna ladainaaa ankaalanw wa jaheemaa

With Us are shackles, and a Fierce Fire

وَطَعَامًا ذَا غُصَّةٍ وَعَذَابًا أَلِيمًا

Wa ta'aaman zaa ghussa tinw wa'azaaban aleemaa

And food that chokes, and a painful punishment

يَوْمَ تَرْجُفُ ٱلْأَرْضُ وَٱلْجِبَالُ وَكَانَتِ ٱلْجِبَالُ كَثِيبًا مَّهِيلًا

Yawma tarjuful ardu waljibaalu wa kaanatil jibaalu kaseebam maheelaa

On the Day when the earth and the mountains tremble, and the mountains become heaps of sand

إِنَّآ أَرْسَلْنَآ إِلَيْكُمْ رَسُولًا شَـٰهِدًا عَلَيْكُمْ كَمَآ أَرْسَلْنَآ إِلَىٰ فِرْعَوْنَ رَسُولًا

Innaa arsalnaaa ilaikum rasoolan shahidan 'alikum kamaaa arsalnaaa ilaa Fir'awna Rasoolna

We have sent to you a messenger, a witness over you, as We sent to Pharaoh a messenger

فَعَصَىٰ فِرْعَوْنُ ٱلرَّسُولَ فَأَخَذْنَـٰهُ أَخْذًا وَبِيلًا

Fa'asaa Fir'awnur Rasoola fa akhaznaahu akhzanw wabeelaa

But Pharaoh defied the Messenger, so We seized him with a terrible seizing

فَكَيْفَ تَتَّقُونَ إِن كَفَرْتُمْ يَوْمًا يَجْعَلُ ٱلْوِلْدَٰنَ شِيبًا

Fakaifa tattaqoona in kafartum yawmany yaj'alul wildaana sheeba

So how will you, if you persist in unbelief, save yourself from a Day which will turn the children gray-haired

ٱلسَّمَآءُ مُنفَطِرٌۢ بِهِۦ ۚ كَانَ وَعْدُهُۥ مَفْعُولًا

Assamaaa'u munfatirum bih; kaana wa'duhoo maf'oola

The heaven will shatter thereby. His promise is always fulfilled

إِنَّ هَـٰذِهِۦ تَذْكِرَةٌ ۖ فَمَن شَآءَ ٱتَّخَذَ إِلَىٰ رَبِّهِۦ سَبِيلًا

Inna haazihee tazkiratun fa man shaaa'at takhaza ilaa Rabbihee sabeelaa

This is a reminder. So whoever wills, let him take a path to his Lord

۞ إِنَّ رَبَّكَ يَعْلَمُ أَنَّكَ تَقُومُ أَدْنَىٰ مِن ثُلُثَىِ ٱلَّيْلِ وَنِصْفَهُۥ وَثُلُثَهُۥ وَطَآئِفَةٌ مِّنَ ٱلَّذِينَ مَعَكَ ۚ وَٱللَّهُ يُقَدِّرُ ٱلَّيْلَ وَٱلنَّهَارَ ۚ عَلِمَ أَن لَّن تُحْصُوهُ فَتَابَ عَلَيْكُمْ ۖ فَٱقْرَءُوا۟ مَا تَيَسَّرَ مِنَ ٱلْقُرْءَانِ ۚ عَلِمَ أَن سَيَكُونُ مِنكُم مَّرْضَىٰ ۙ وَءَاخَرُونَ يَضْرِبُونَ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ يَبْتَغُونَ مِن فَضْلِ ٱللَّهِ ۙ وَءَاخَرُونَ يُقَـٰتِلُونَ فِى سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ ۖ فَٱقْرَءُوا۟ مَا تَيَسَّرَ مِنْهُ ۚ وَأَقِيمُوا۟ ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ وَءَاتُوا۟ ٱلزَّكَوٰةَ وَأَقْرِضُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ قَرْضًا حَسَنًا ۚ وَمَا تُقَدِّمُوا۟ لِأَنفُسِكُم مِّنْ خَيْرٍ تَجِدُوهُ عِندَ ٱللَّهِ هُوَ خَيْرًا وَأَعْظَمَ أَجْرًا ۚ وَٱسْتَغْفِرُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ ۖ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ غَفُورٌ رَّحِيمٌۢ

Inna Rabbaka ya'lamu annaka taqoomu adnaa min sulusa yil laili wa nisfahoo wa sulusahoo wa taaa'ifatum minal lazeena ma'ak; wal laahu yuqaddirul laila wanna haar; 'alima al lan tuhsoohu fataaba 'alaikum faqra'oo maa tayassara minal quraan; 'alima an sa yakoonu minkum mardaa wa aakharoona yadriboona fil ardi yabtaghoona min fadlil laahi wa aakharoona yuqaatiloona fee sabeelil laahi faqra'oo ma tayassara minhu wa aqeemus salaata wa aatuz zakaata wa aqridul laaha qardan hasanaa; wa maa tuqadimoo li anfusikum min khairin tajidoohu 'indal laahi huwa khayranw wa a'zama ajraa; wastaghfirul laahaa innal laaha ghafoorur raheem.

Your Lord knows that you stay up nearly two-thirds of the night, or half of it, or one-third of it, along with a group of those with you. God designed the night and the day. He knows that you are unable to sustain it, so He has pardoned you. So read of the Quran what is possible for you. He knows that some of you may be ill; and others travelling through the land, seeking God’s bounty; and others fighting in God’s cause. So read of it what is possible for you, and observe the prayers, and give regular charity, and lend God a generous loan. Whatever good you advance for yourselves, you will find it with God, better and generously rewarded. And seek God’s forgiveness, for God is Forgiving and Merciful
